Too many pics for many (really) different locations...you I’ll may get the “storage room” without shower...be aware and ASK before confirming any reservation. Better safe than sorry...

We were in the unit across from Vitrin cafe (highly recommend, great coffee and crepes/waffles, ate breakfast there every day). The unit is in a perfect location, a quick walk to all stores and restaurants. It is also an ideal location to watch the sunset (hundreds of people will actually swarm the patio outside to get a view which makes coming/going very hard until the sun sets). Fortunately there was a private balcony to view the sunset from with tables and chairs. The crowds of people were visibly jealous when they saw us sitting with our wine glasses lounging and watching the sun set. The unit has 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The air conditioner worked well and there are also small fans provided in each room. A housekeeper came every morning to tidy up. Joanna is the property manager, and she was extremely helpful with recommendations and transportation. She arranged transportation to and from the unit, and had our bags carried for us both to and from as well (there is no car access and a 2 min walk down several stairs). We would 100% stay again.

I spent 6 nights at the alsaki suite. The location is perfect since it’s right near the bus station in Oia and is accessible to all of the local shops, restaurants and the iconic cliff with all the white and blue domes. The suite itself is down one of the cobblestone alleys and has a restaurant nearby that plays live music almost every night. The live music can go until 1:30am. Along with the music, the street the suite is located on is also pretty popular and has tourists walking back and forth constantly. We only know this because the suite does not dampen any of this noise and it will sound like they are inside the suite with you. Other than the lack of soundproof walls, the suite has 2 beds (one bed is up top in a loft), a bathroom and a little kitchenette. There’s a fridge, little stovetop, utensils, coffee, tea and cleaning supplies. The only caveat is that the washroom is quite small and the shower is not your typical one. There is just a shower head added to a drain beside the toilet, which in turn makes the entire bathroom a shower if you decide to take one. Other than that, the suite is great for a short term stay (3 days max) for up to 2 people. I would compare it to an Airbnb/hostel, rather than a 5-star hotel accommodation.

Beware, the pictures online represent all of their homes. Ask for pictures of your place before booking or you may end up showering where you use the toilet. Your stay will certainly be unique.
